The Hellenic Coast Guard fired warning shots into the air. Ship did not stop at his calls.

 

The Hellenic Coast Guard said it opened warning fire in a safe direction while pursuing a "suspicious vessel" sailing under the Comoros flag that entered Greek territorial waters on Saturday.



A patrol boat from the Port Authority of Mytilini asked the captain of ANATOLIAN to stop for an inspection after the vessel was spotted in the sea northwest of Lesbos, the Greek coast guard said. 

The captain refused to comply and a pursuit followed during which warning shots were fired.

According to the Hellenic Coast Guard, Turkish authorities have been informed about the incident.
